Have you tried reading your course notes/books. Or googling the topic? I've done some research 9or is it secondary research?) for you and found this:

Primary research is where you go out and conduct studies yourself - surveys, measurements, statistical analysis over time - depending on what the topic is.
Secondary research is where you use other people's primary research to draw your own conclusions, based on consolidation of other's primary research findings. Its much easier to undertake - especially since the web.
Thank you very much.
